| The desktop window manager only crashes with the Aero feature running I was using a theme that is called maxclear which makes all window borders totally clear see through and the window manager service does not like it even with out being overclocked the Aero interface is very prone to crashes by buggy drivers and such plus the system has no other stability issues. | |

| Why not OC?
Q6600 @ 2.4GHz OC @ 3.627GHz (Stable!)
4G OCZ pc2-8500 (Timings tightened to 4-4-4-12 Stable!)
